[Alt text](web/images/MD4XAML28.png "How Can I Use The Themes?") Source Code
To load the source project you will need Visual Studio 2022. Don't worry if you have an earlier version, you can still use the compiled assemblies from NuGet (Install-Package MaterialDesignThemes
). There are three demo projects in the solution, restore the necessary NuGet packages and correct the programming syntax that is not compatible with C# versions lower than C# 10.0 (currently used in Visual Studio 2022
). Then, you should be able to fire the projects up. The first one is a "pure" Material Design 2 project. The second one shows how to combine with Dragablz and MahApps. The last one is a Material Design 3 project (In Development
).
